Don't Worry About Losing a Mineral Source With Purified Water

Unfortunately, to properly purify water, everything needs to be taken out, including beneficial minerals.

Some people would have you believe that when your drink purified water it will leach minerals out of your body, robbing you of a vital nutritional benefit. In reality, the inorganic minerals that are leached out have already been rejected by the cells and tissues.

The body does need minerals, but it is not necessary that they come from water. There is not one type of mineral that cannot be found much more abundantly in food.

Water would be a most unreliable source because it varies from one area to another and each persons body chemistry is made up differently. Very few of our drinking water sources would classify as having a perfectly balanced mineral content.

The food we eat, not the water we drink, is our most reliable source of minerals. So it just makes good common sense to try to CLEAN UP the water and take out the chemicals and pollutants by Distillation or Reverse Osmosis, and eat plenty of mineral rich fruits and vegetables.

For perfect mineral water, add a few drops of Concentrace liquid mineral drops by Trace Minerals Research to a glass of purified water. Or, add two tablespoons of mineral drops to every five gallons of water. This can also serve as an Electrolyte Fortified Sports Drink, without all the excess sugar.
